If your looking to have the most one of a kind romantic / special experience. There is not place like this resort. Everything was perfect in every way from the scenery to the service. Truly amazing to say the least. 10-10. Make sure you experience the spa.
From the moment you arrive on property, all of your cares disappear. The staff meets you at your car and states they will take care of everything! And they do! The service is attentive without being overbearing. The entire property is all about the surroundings, blending in and taking advantage of the landscape. The rooms are spacious and serene, affording you ultimate relaxation.
My wife and another couple visited the resort in April of this year. Our friends had stayed at another Aman resort and set our expectations very high for the experience. The resort is situated in an absolutely stunning setting surrounded by rock formations worthy of Monument Valley. The resort is cleverly designed to blend into its surroundings and the concept is minimalist but somehow also elegant. The staff is friendly without being obsequious. Of the available activities on the property are largely outdoor oriented, and are well run. The spa. Is pleasant and adequate as is the fitness center.. There are only two things that detracted from an otherwise excellent experience. The food and beverage department needs a lot of work. Breakfasts and lunches are the same every day, with no rotation or specials on the menu. So, during a three days stay, we had the same choices every day. The dinner menu did rotate, but the dinners were just not equal to the quality of the resort. The seasonings of all the dishes were very similar, so whether you had fish, chicken or steak, it all tasted about the same. The ingredient quality itself was only average. The other negative related to the pricing of the alcohol, which was obscene. Wines were offered at 10 to 15 times retail. And, to make things worse, the wine list was anything but extensive. One expect to pay 2 to 4 times retail at a resort of this quality, but Arman has taken it so far over the top that you feel absolutely gouged by the alcohol prices. All in all, it was worth doing once, but I don’t think we would rush back.…
This is our favorite Aman hotel after being mostly traveling Aman in Asia. We have been here since when the first hotel opened years back. We did not have great experience last time we were here but, We are glad to see improvement in many areas. The welcome tea is a nice touch and the service has been much improved overall. Most noticeable is the addition of Camp Sarika. The food has been amazing overall. The menu offering and quality are outstanding. We love our dinner at the main resort. The executive chef is great and talented with his craft. We have been eating in many best restaurants in the world and Amangiri is among one of the best meals we experience. This was a pleasant improvement over our past stay. The Spa was great, and we did enjoy our couple massage as well as a morning yoga class. We love all the outdoor activities during our stay and the guides were knowledgeable. Minor feedback on service at Camp Sarika dinner one night. Service is extremely slow. We had to wait for our table for close to 30 minutes, despite the reservation. No server come to ask for our drink order for 15 minutes and my husband have to get his attention. The food was great, and we love the chef’s creation of the dinner. However, after such impeccable services at the main resort. We felt that service at Camp Sarika should have been better. We love the Amangiri and looking forward to coming back. Thank you to all the staff to make our stay so great. The Aman Kyoto in Japan and Amangiri are our top Aman properties.…
We stayed at Amangiri in November 2020 (just getting caught up on reviews since COVID) and the only way to describe this place is unearthly — it felt like being transported to another planet. The natural surroundings and architecture are a feast for the eyes. We enjoyed dining at the main restaurant as well as Camp Sarika. The hiking and outdoor activity selection here is outstanding. Team members at both properties provided a warm, attentive, stellar service experience. The hotel arranged a beautiful surprise for us for our anniversary at dinner and back in the room (make-up from a trip we had scheduled in May but was cancelled due to COVID). Cannot say enough good things about this place, it was a peak travel experience.
Our family had a great vacation at Amangiri. The landscape is out of this world. It’s like having been transported to another planet. Peaceful surroundings and attentive service. The restaurants were amazing with attentive service. The managements were present throughout our stay and engaging. We have the pleasure to talk with the F&B director Mario from Italy. He ensured our dining experiences and bookings were on point. The food in both restaurants was fantastic. We did enjoy the concept of chef’s menu sharing at camp sarika which offers varieties of delicious items. The chef even makes adjustments to his menu for our daughter so our family can dine together. We did horseback riding, hiking around the canyon, and a quick visit to the horseshoe bend. The spa was a tranquil and relaxing massage experience. Greg the manager at the spa was lovely and fit for the role. As I mentioned that our family enjoy the food offered at the hotel. I’d have to say that the most stand out of our entire stay was the executive chef Suti Ngamtipakon. His attention to food and passion when we talk to him is such a pleasant experience. He brought samples of his new dishes to us. That made me want to come back to try his new menu. It was fantastic. To sum it all up, we have great experience beyond expectation. Worth every penny. This hotel is a must-try at least once in your lifetime. But why only once? We will be back.…
My wife's birthday and our anniversary brought us to Amangiri. We had a wonderful time. The quality of the rooms, amenities, meals, service, spa, and staff were all excellent. There are no luxury hotels in US that offer a better experience than Amangiri. Many well-known hotels are not even comparable. I had some doubts before visiting. Because the luxury hospitality industry in the US tends to not offer you what you pay for when compared to Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Amangiri brought the typical Aman experience to the US, something I didn't think was possible. We will definitely visit again.
We visited Amangiri as a family when it was relatively new and loved absolutely everything about it. The landscape is awe inspiring, the staff is incredible and the rooms and food are amazing. All 6 of us were greeted by the staff by name upon arrival. Our rooms were beautiful. One night we sat outside by the fire and made s'mores. We took an amazing early morning horseback ride. The spa was also great. The pool is extremely cool. The only issue is that we should have stayed longer. Aman Hotels are off the charts.
We spent several nights at Amangiri with our daughter during Christmas week and leaving just prior to Christmas (as we had a surprise family reunion for my anniversary). We stayed in room #20 and that worked out perfectly for us as it was conveniently located close to everything (pool, spa and restaurant) allowing us to not have to wear outer jackets most times. The weather was beautiful and perfect for excursions. Let’s first start with the good: Resort Great setup, wonderful decor that leaves you feeling serene. The view from the room was breathtaking as was the view from main restaurant/lobby during breakfast and lunch. Pool Wonderful setup and even during this season very swimmable. The temp is set at 95c and the hot tub at 104c. We really enjoyed that one day. Spa Great service, ambiance was very unique and wonderful. Food Absolutely perfect. Says a lot as we have traveled the world and many Michelin starred restaurants. Excursions Great UTV experience that was a highlight for our daughter. Better than we expected. One caveat…out heating had issues in our room. It would not get warm to the point we spent the first day all in blankets and winter jackets in the room…too cold to take a shower. They had sent a couple of technicians to repair the issue while we were in the room. It seemed to be resolved until the next day in the afternoon (we were out the whole day on excursions) when we got back to the room and it was cold again. The technicians came again, apologized and finally got it fixed that night. I understand things like this happen. We were asked repeatedly if things were better etc. However, based on my past experiences at customer centric resorts…we would have got some form of compensation as a token gesture. We did not here. Now, I am giving five stars as we loved our experience and plan on returning. However, it’s just something I would have expected at this level, and price point, given that the issue went on for a couple of days. That said we really enjoyed our time there.…
This is one of the premier destinations on the planet. Absolutely epic in every way. We enjoyed our entire stay and even made some new friends in the process. We can’t wait to make our way back and to explore their other properties. 11 out of 10.
